HP Proliant ML350p gen8 - smart array p420i boots up with wrong boot partition

[AndroRuan]

Hello guys,

i just encountered this wierd issue on this model,  the server has following details

OS: windows Server2008 R2

original raid config: RAID 0 - 1TB

                                 RAID 1 - 932GB

unconfigured drives: 5nos. 1TB  - 3.6TB

Upon configuring unconfigured drive into RAID5 - upon restarting,  Server Unable to boot on original RAID 0 - disk.

tried to set also the set boot volume setting to RAID 0. and reads different Drive letter.

tried diskpart but didn't help. 

Could you please advice whats wrong, the server was never updated with SPP. 

Thanks and waiting for advice.

Hi  Andro Ruan,

In this case we need to check three option only
standard boot priority order in the server BIOS
controller boot order if server is configured with multiple controller card
logical drive boot order if server is configured with multiple logical drives
both option need to be check in the SSA select right option accordingly

if issue persist then, i would request you to log support case with hpe technical support team, because log analysis are required to process further with troubleshooting in this case.

Thanks & regards,
